      Sure. It was solved via a request submitted to Microsoft Support. The problem turned out to be, I believe, that I didn't complete the developer partner panel in the Organization profile (Legal info), only the partner panel. Then the issue was closed and had to be re-opened by the support team.

    Hi tnordgard,

     

    I'm facing a very similar issue — Employment Verification rejected,

    domain WHOIS registrant email masked by privacy protection, and I'm

    also unable to submit a support request through the normal Partner

    Center form (dropdown fields won't populate).

     

    You marked this as "Solved" — would you mind sharing which channel

    or documentation finally worked for you? Really appreciate any

    pointer, thank you!
